It is also true that every time Tao Ying comes, it seems that he is going to go far away. This time is still no exception, he wants to go south, although under the banner of seeing Tai Shici, but the real reason for going to the south is only known to him!

"Winter is coming to an end, and I want to rush south before winter is over. There are some things to be solved in the south, and it may take half a year to go out, so let's resign. I don't have any relatives here, only you! ”

Tao Ying nodded, although Miss Gan is young, only a teenager, but the ancients matured early, and there are many mothers at her age.

So when Tao Ying said that she was the only relative, Miss Gan was a little moved.

The two talked for a long time, and finally Tao Ying decided not to set up negative teaching materials in Pengcheng, so he moved the Gan family back to Taoling Town. Taoling Town is a small town, where it is basically its own military industry and academy, and there are few places for entertainment, so even if his brother goes, he can't make big waves, not to mention that under his nose, he doesn't dare to be too presumptuous.

After saying goodbye to Miss Gan, Tao Ying took Sun Shao and others towards Taoling Town. After half a month of adjustment, Tao Ying finally chose the person who would follow him south.

First of all, you must bring a particularly powerful bodyguard, looking at Peng Chengguo, the most powerful one is the bodyguard king Zhao Yun! Zhao Yun can be called the ancestor of the bodyguard world, and he has always protected Liu Bei in history, whether he goes to Dongwu or there, he is there.

Therefore, Tao Ying transferred Zhao Yun, who was far away in Zhuyi, back with a paper order, and having a bodyguard was naturally not enough. There is a lot of water in the south, and what he lacks most is a general who understands water. Thinking about it, he had to bring Xu Sheng, the second brother who was originally going to be transferred to Qingdao City.

Two brothers who are very close to themselves will definitely assist themselves with their hearts and go into battle as brothers!

took Xu Sheng and Zhao Yun, and then thought about it, it seemed that he had to take another person. His three brothers are all very young, the third brother can fight, the second brother knows water, but no one understands military affairs, so he can only take Cao Chun there, although Cao Chun is still injured. Next to him, Sun Shao suggested that if he took Cao Chun there, once Cao Chun's gunshot wound recurred, his life would be in danger.

It's better to let him stay in Pengcheng, there are famous doctors in Pengcheng, plus valuable medicinal materials can be used casually, I believe that he will be able to heal the gunshot wound in less than half a year, and at the same time, someone will be able to command Pengcheng. At that time, it happened that the marshal was guarding the south of Pengcheng in the forbidden town to deal with Lü Bu and Yuan Shao's people, and Cao Chun was in command of the capital of Pengcheng.

In the north, there is Zang Ba to guard Shanyang County, Lu Qian to guard Peiguo, and Chen Deng to guard Guangling in the south, so that the strength of the four places is relatively balanced.

And Tao Ying wants to go south to find talents, he must bring a wise man, a smart and handsome person who can talk well in literature and martial arts, think about it, the person who meets this condition is none other than Zhuge Liang's brother Zhuge Jin!

In his own camp, only he has been a general, a local eunuch, and a civil official in the imperial court, so Zhuge Jin will definitely take it with him.

So after half a month of preparation, Tao Ying ordered Sun Shao to continue to stay in his military industrial stronghold - Taoling Town, and ordered Zhang Zhao to lead the state affairs of Pengcheng, Cao Chundu to command Pengcheng ** horse, and Li Dian to command the troops to guard Taoling Town.

After everything was ready, braving the bitter cold of winter, Tao Ying got on the carriage and rode towards Guangling accompanied by Xu Sheng, Zhao Yun, and Zhuge Jin. The plan for this road is to go from Guangling to Jiangdong, and while searching for talents, we must also go to Guangling to check the terrain. After all, there is still a big difference between ancient and modern times, so Tao Ying took three teachers and students from the Surveying and Mapping School with great skill, and they were responsible for drawing the map of the Jiangnan generation.

When a few people were on the road, the young Zhuge Liang also went to the road, and it happened that Zhuge Liang was particularly interested in weapons and gunpowder technology during this time, so Tao Ying also took him over.

Along the way, you can just teach Zhuge gunpowder common sense, and then there are all kinds of gun production, in the history of the Three Kingdoms, everyone only knows that Zhuge Liang is the best at leading troops to fight, but he is also a very great inventor. He not only invented the Zhuge crossbow, but also invented a wooden horse that could move on its own, which made Tao Yingdu wonder if he had been taught by someone who had crossed over. Now that he has crossed by himself, with Zhuge Liang's material, if he is taught this, it is inevitable that he will push the first industrial revolution forward.

The wheels are rolling, walking from Taoling Town to the Yangtze River, and passing by the potter's territory in the middle. But this time, fortunately, as long as you arrive at Xiapi City, you can take a boat from Xiapi City to Suiling, and then walk along the Huai River from Suiling, and finally turn to Guangling City in Daguangling County by land.

At this time, Tao Ying wanted to go south from Guangling City to Jiangdu, and then cross the Yangtze River to reach Wu County. In the past few days, news has come from the south that Liu Miao has led his troops back to Ou'a again, and Zang Ba has also sent troops south to occupy Dantu across the river. Zang Ba and Liu Miao teamed up to drive Sun Ce to Yangzhou again.

Presumably, they will definitely not give up now, and Sun Ce will come back after he goes to borrow troops. Ou Ah must be lost, but Tao Ying has another purpose for this trip, that is, he must persuade Huiji Wang Lang to take refuge in himself, and when the time comes, he will hurry up to build the southern naval base of Pengcheng State in Hangzhou Bay - Qiantang River Naval Base!

From Pengcheng to Xiapi City, the two places are not far apart. Due to the rise of Pengcheng, Xiapi City has lost its former aura, but a temporary water transportation city, as well as new papermaking and shipbuilding industries are rising here, so compared with before, Xiapi City is developing more and more decently.

In Xiapi City, Xiapi Taishou prepared a three-story building ship for Tao Ying, which was originally the largest warship built by the Xiapi Naval Division, responsible for cruising and patrolling in Surabaya. The three-story ship, more than ten zhang high, has a female wall and a battle grid built on it, and there are stone and iron buckets next to the hull.

Looking at the ship from afar, it is full of pennants, it is not spectacular!

Tao Ying boarded the ship, and there were nearly 500 soldiers on this ship. Behind the building ship, there are five ships, named the ship, which is the main force of the naval warship.

Setting off with such a naval army, it was really powerful. From the north to Picheng, all the way to the Huai River, it took more than half a month, the time soon arrived in February, the day is warmer, and it is the south, so the river does not have much ice, and the boat is getting faster and faster.

Tao Ying, who has not been on a boat for a long time, for some reason, originally because of his curiosity on the boat, he had to stand on the top floor of the third floor every day to watch the scenery next to him, and he still didn't point out the country. But after a few days, I became numb to the same scenery. And the boat is shaking, and most of the shaking Tao Ying is big.
